RabIes Caused ETIs Death

SEDALIA, Mo-, Nov. 24.-Samuel J.
Foster, a railroad man, went to the
Missouri Pacific hospital in this city at
IL o'clock yesterday morning and COM
planned of pains in his stomach. The
physician prescribed far him, and after
a great effort he swallowed the medi-
cine. At 2 o'clock he showed symp-
toms of bydrophobia, and was tied
hand and foot and then bound firmly
to the iron bedstead on which he was
placed. Shortly afterward he was at
tackled with violent spasms, and
his struggles were terrible. He
frothed at the mouth and several
times came very near choking to
death. Drs. Yancey and Adams at
once began to give him woorara by
hypodermic injection. This is South
American remedy, obtained on the
upper Amazon and upper Oronoco and
also in British Guiana and used by the
South American Indians to poison
their arrows in battle and also in kill
ing game. 1t is known as an anti
spasmodic of greater power, perhaps,
than any other drug in the materia
medica. This remedy had been order
ed for James u. Cody, who died in the
hospital from hydrophobia during the
summer, but which came too late.
The doctors used it on Foster with
vigor, giving one-thirteenth of a grain
every half an hour or so, but seemingly
without effect.
A large number of the leading
physicians of the city were present and
after thorough trial of the woorara
it was advised by all that dose of NOR
phine be administered hypoder-
micallv. This was done and after
twenty or thirty minutes Foster began
to show the effects by becoming quieter.
Although he did not sleep, yet his
spasms were less frequent and not so
hard, and at TBS p. m. he died.
The dead man came to this city one
year ago from Neenah, Wis. He was
freight conductor for ten or twelve
years on the Northern Pacific, but he
has been following the calling of fire.
man since he came to Missouri. His
remains will be sent to Neenah for
burial. He was about 80 years of age
and was we'll liked by his associates.
He denied having been bitten by dog
or any other animal, but physicians all
agree that rabies caused his death.
